Patriotism is not your property; stop drama: Cong tells saffron forces

August 22, 2016

Bengaluru, Aug 22: Slamming saffron forces for their continued protest against Amnesty International over alleged anti-India sloganeering by unknown miscreants, the Congress party has claimed that BJP and ABVP are politicizing the matter and fooling people for selfish gains. dinesh-gundu-rao

Speaking to the media here on Monday Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) working president, Dinesh Gundu Rao called the BJP's so called Tiranga Yatra and ABVP's protest as their new dramas to cover up their failures and blunders. “Stop this drama,” he said.

"Patriotism is no one person's property. We also are patriotic. The ABVP and BJP are politicising the Amnesty International case," he said adding that the police was well equipped to initiate action against the NGO if any seditious activity was proved.

Justifying the statement made by home minister G Parameshwara on Amnesty having done nothing seditious, Rao said the statement was misinterpreted.

"When he told that Amnesty according to him had not indulged in any seditious activity, he meant that there was no proof about such activities conducted by the NGO. If there is any proof of seditious activity let the ABVP or the BJP produce it. Our police are quite capable of investigating into the matter and take necessary action," he said.

He said the ABVP was conducting the protests outside the realm of law by not informing the police of their assembly and trying to create a law and order crisis.

"The ABVP and BJP are trying to cover up their mistakes in levelling allegations against Amnesty by conducting these protests," said Rao.

Attacking the Tiranga yatra of BJP, Rao was critical of the saffron party and questioned its contribution to the freedom of the country. "Till 1925, Savarkar was there in the freedom struggle for name sake. But after that he disappears. Such are the freedom fighters which BJP considers as their idol," said the KPCC working president sarcastically.

Man ends life after lover gets engaged in Bengaluru

News Network

February 9,2020

Mandya, Feb 9: A youth from Arechakanahalli village of Maddur taluk on Saturday allegedly committed suicide in Bengaluru after his lover got engaged to another man.

The body of the deceased, Darshan, was found hanging from the celising of his room in Bengaluru. According to Darshan's relatives, he was in love with a girl for the past few years.

Darshan had wanted to marry her, much to the chagrin of her parents, it is said.

The girl's parents had allegedly warned him of dire consequences if he did not stay clear from their daughter. In the meanwhile, she got engaged to another man.

Feeling left out, Darshan allegedly ended his life. In the suicide note, Darshan has held his lover and some of her relatives responsible for his death. He has also claimed that his family was facing death threat from her family.

There are rumours that Darshan might have been killed after he refused to stop seeing the girl. Though both the families are from the same community, their financial status, sources said, is different.

According to the relative of Darshan, the girl is a close relative to a former minister from Mandya district.

"There are reasons to suspect that Darshan might have been murdered, and a suicide note may have been planted at the crime spot.

A proper investigation should be conducted to unearth the truth," he said.
